ZORA Cat 6A Shielded Module FAQ

1: What is the ZORA Cat 6A Shielded Module?

 This is a Category 6A shielded network module designed for high EMI environments, supporting 10Gbps Ethernet. Its metal shielding (foil/braid) suppresses interference, ideal for industrial networks, data center cores, and medical facilities.

2: What are the maximum speed and distance supported?

With Cat 6A shielded cables, it supports 10GBASE-T (10Gbps) up to 100 meters, compliant with ISO/IEC 11801-1 (500MHz bandwidth). Shorter runs (≤50m) enhance alien crosstalk resistance.

3: Are special installation steps required?

  • Grounding: End-to-end grounding is mandatory! Connect the patch panel’s grounding terminal to the rack’s grounding system.

  • Cable handling: Ensure shield contact with the module’s metal housing; untwist pairs ≤13mm.

  • Tools: Use shielded termination tools (e.g., KRONE tools) to preserve shield integrity.

4: Can it work with unshielded cables/devices?

 Physically compatible, but mixing components negates shielding benefits and may cause ground loops. Use end-to-end shielded systems (cables, panels, patch cords).

5: What are the advantages of its shielding and materials?

  • Full-metal shield: 360° coverage against EMI/RFI.

  • Gold-plated contacts: 50μ-inch gold layer for oxidation resistance.

  • Flame-retardant housing: UL 94V-0 certified for harsh environments.

6: How to verify shielding effectiveness?

  • Basic test: Use a multimeter to check shield-to-ground continuity (resistance ≤1Ω).

  • Advanced test: Validate ANEXT, TCL with Fluke DSX-5000 per Cat 6A shielded specifications.

7: Does it support high-power PoE?

 Yes. Compliant with 802.3bt PoE++ (90W max), its low impedance and thermal design ensure stable power delivery for PTZ cameras and Wi-Fi 6E APs.

8: Why choose shielded over unshielded modules?

 Shielded modules are designed for:

  • High EMI areas (e.g., near industrial motors).

  • High-density cabling (e.g., 40G/100G backbone links).

  • Regions with mandatory shielding regulations (e.g., EU industrial zones).

9: Common failures and solutions?

  • Poor grounding: Verify ground wire connections (resistance ≤1Ω).

  • Speed negotiation failure: Replace damaged cables or check length limits.

  • PoE dropout: Clean oxidized contacts; validate PD compatibility.

10: Is it future-proof for higher speeds?

Cat 6A shielding supports future 25G/40G over short distances (e.g., 25GBASE-T up to 30m), provided all components (cables, switches) are upgraded.
